Fixsanem-50
Description_Effects
Fixsanem-50 is an antibiotic medication formulated to treat a variety of bacterial infections in children and certain adults, depending on the dosage and clinical requirement. It contains Cefixime 50 mg, a third-generation cephalosporin antibiotic known for its broad-spectrum activity against both gram-positive and gram-negative bacteria. Fixsanem-50 works by inhibiting the synthesis of bacterial cell walls, leading to the destruction of bacteria and helping the body overcome infection. It is commonly prescribed to treat severe respiratory tract infections such as pneumonia, bronchitis, pharyngitis, and tonsillitis. It is also effective in managing urinary tract infections (UTIs) including cystitis and pyelonephritis, skin and soft tissue infections, and certain gynaecological infections like cervicitis or pelvic infections caused by susceptible bacterial strains. This formulation is especially designed for pediatric use, ensuring accurate dosing and safety in children. It may be available as a dispersible tablet or oral suspension, making it easier to administer to young patients. The dosage and duration of treatment depend on the age, weight, and severity of the infection. Possible side effects include diarrhea, abdominal pain, nausea, or rash, but these are generally mild and resolve on their own. Serious allergic reactions are rare but require immediate medical attention. As with any antibiotic, it is crucial to complete the full course of Fixsanem-50 even if the symptoms improve early, to prevent resistance and recurrence of infection. Always use this medication under the supervision of a healthcare provider.
